I think this is the first injection kit of a civilian liner converted for military use at least in terms of having armament parts added. It's interesting to see a luxury liner sans her civilian paint job.

Very interesting subject, looks typical of Mirage, the look an awful lot better off the sprue and cleaned up, and even better still as they go together.
Odd scale, but very tempting, any 1/500th etch out there??

Only thing I can think of in the way of 1/500 PE Si, is GMM.
